Actor Wang Yueting's directorial debut is a contemporary urban romance about the love stories of two very different men. Longtime bachelor Kwong-ming (Peter Chen Ho) and his colleague Chin (director King Hu) share a flat. A charismatic, overconfident playboy, Kwong-ming courts several women at the same time, but ends up having the tables turned on him by free spirit Man-lai (Margaret Tu Chuan) and courtesan Yin-na (Fanny Fan Lai). After the honest and upright Chin saves him from trouble, Kwong-ming decides to straighten his act and woo homey salesgirl So-fan (Grace Ding Ling) with his flatmate's help. While executing his plan for Kwong-ming, Chin falls for So-fan's best friend Pui-chun (Pat Ting Hung). After various comical misunderstandings and reconciliations, true love finally prevails for both of our heroes.
